I have a confession to make

I guess most of you know how I feel about the exquisite human being known as Gene Kelly. But the truth is I haven’t seen that many of his movies (I know, shame on me!) and I don’t know where to start. These are the ones that I have seen:

For Me And My Gal, The Pirate, Summer Stock (lol, duh x 3), On The Town, An American In Paris, Brigadoon, Singin’ In The Rain, Marjorie Morningstar, and Xanadu.

What should be next on my list?


Edit:  I completely forgot about Les Girls. I’ve watched that one too!

Lovely, lovely, legs…

Preparing for “A Couple of Swells”, Astaire —compulsively neat— had difficulty in deciding on his tramp’s costume. Each day he came to Judy with something a little different, but he never looked worse than a particularly well-groomed Fuller Brush man at the end of a hard day. Every time he would ask her the same question: “Is this too much?” Judy, amused, made polite comments until she had perfected her own ensemble for the number. Then she got into full costume and makeup—the clown’s shoes, the baggy pants, the monstrous coat, the burnt cork and the blacked-out tooth—and knocked on the door of Astaire’s trailer. He opened the door and looked out in disbelief. “Is this too much?” she asked.
